VAs contradistinguished from the inven- I' tions hitherto known the present inventionis l "5' characterizedby the fact that the body carrying the bearings for the shaft driving the various tools forms a central'unitothe machine and that said body not alone, can be adjustedin'height, but also can b e turned 1o about avertical axis and in everyovertical plane can be axially adjusted and urthercan y be turned at plane.

Over the machine an adjustable table for the workpiece can be arranged and zin front of every one of the four sides oitthev machine an adjustable-table for the workpiece can be arranged or such a table in form of a `circular ring quite surrounding the machine can be arranged and in this way itis possible,-

when the different tools are attached on the one end or on both ends of the working shaft, with the same machine and partially at the same time to execute all of the common woodworking operations such as cutting, shaping' sawing, planing', boring, grinding,A polishing, tenoning, mortising, rabbeting, sanding and the like. 1

In the accompanying drawing various constructional forms of the machine are shown.

Fig. 1 is a side elevation of a machine embodying one form of theinvention and in which adjustments'are permitted-in a verti ycal plane. v n

Fig. 2 is a similar view of another form of the invention, the machine being adjustable in a horizontal plane. Fig. 3. is a vertical sectional'view of lstill another form of machine which is adjustable both inthe vertical and the horizontal plane and the heightof table of which can be varied in two ways, namely either by adjusting the bearing body of the machine or the table or both. Y l5 As Ashown in Fig, `1 there is provided al Y bearing body comprising as shown in the vertical plane a fork 3 having bearings for the trunnions-7 of the motor 1. The fork 3 i is attached to a vertical square stud l which is adjustable in height ina base 9,V and the everyangle in the horizontal connected to the slide 8. By means of the stud l canfb'e fixed in the adjusted vposition by means of a.' screw12.v Thedottedlinef21 indicates thet'ablefor the L5worlfpiece when the :spindle Y2 yisl in-v its vertical posit-ion, fbuti when-the' spindle `2 of' the motor 1" isturned 55'v into'the 'horizontal/positiona table .2l-for the workpiece'is employed,
